Shen Yuhan was calm and composed in the face of the sharp tip of the knife, while Shan Qihuan and the policeman watching outside couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.
But he wasn’t worried at all, instead, he asked Shan Qiyun: “It was you who gave up on Shen Yuhan first, why did you blame me, you guys never started, no one owes you anything, I’m not afraid of death, I’m a person who has died once. I just want to ask you, what are you planning to do by cooperating with Shan Qibai and the others? Money? Or fame?”
Shan Qiyun’s hand holding the knife trembled slightly, he has always presented a gentle and elegant image to others, but his heart is indeed not as upright and honourable1光明磊落 (guāng míng lěi luò): open and candid (idiom); straightforward and upright; righteous and upright; upright and honourable; honest and upright. as he appears, he can also scheme against people, but he has never thought about harming other people’s lives, it’s not that he doesn’t have money, he still has a mother who loves him, he is not an outlaw.
When Shen Yuhan asked him this question, Shan Qiyun began to think, what is he doing all this for?
He stared hard at Shen Yuhan’s face, and there was only one answer left, he had never been with Shen Yuhan, nor had a past relationship with him, there’s never an agreement to pledge undying love2海誓山盟 (hǎi shì shān méng): to pledge undying love (idiom); oath of eternal love; to swear by all the Gods; solemn pledge of love; pledge of eternal loyalty; vow of eternal love; a metaphor that love should be as eternal as mountains and seas. Alternative form of 山盟海誓 (shān méng hǎi shì), covenant and oath are as eternal as the mountains and the sea; also refers to the vows made by men and women when they fall in love, indicating that love should be as eternal as mountains and seas. Mostly refers to men and women swearing to love each other sincerely and never change their hearts. to each other either, he’s not his first love, he’s not his white moonlight3白月光 (bái yuè guāng): (Internet fiction) A cherished memory of the first blush of love, pure and unsullied by reality. “白” means “white,” and “月光” means “moonlight.” Quoted from late Chinese author Eileen Chang’s novel “Red Rose, White Rose,” this term refers to a spotless woman a man cherishes in his memory whom he loved but who is no longer with him. The term caught on with the popularity of a TV series by the name of “Yanxi Palace,” in which the role of a deceased queen is called by netizens “the emperor’s white moonlight.” either, so what does he want from Shen Yuhan?
Shen Yuhan had already seen the answer in his eyes: “Even if it’s not me, Shen Yuhan, if it were Li Yuhan and Zhang Yuhan, you would have made the same decision, it’s not that you have to do it with me, it’s just jealousy, the only person you are jealous of from the beginning to the end is my husband.”
“No,” Shan Qiyun shook his head, “That’s not the case, it’s impossible for me to be jealous of Shan Qihuan, his father doesn’t care about him, and his mother doesn’t love him, why would I be jealous of him!”
“Because he is more capable than you, he can do things that you cannot, even someone like me, whom you look down upon, after marrying him, we are both very happy, moreover, he was ultimately chosen by your father as the heir of the Shan Group, that’s why you envy everything about him, including his lineage.” Shen Yuhuan is not a psychologist or a negotiation expert, he just looks at Shan Qiyun from the perspective of house fighting.
In the inner courtyard, there are many young ladies and gers like Shan Qiyun, they are not as good as the best ones, but better than the worst ones4比上不足，比下有餘 (bǐ shàng bù zú, bǐ xià yǒu yú): not as good as the best ones, but better than the worst ones; to fall short of the best but be better than the worst; insufficient compared to the superior, more than adequate compared to the inferior; worse off than some, better off than many; to fall short of the best, but be better than the worst; can’t keep up with those in front, but surpass those behind; this saying is negative if commented on someone else, and humble if used on oneself., they just can’t stand to see others doing better than themselves, if someone they look down upon lives a better life than them, they feel jealous, they always hope to hear from others how unhappy the other person’s life is, if the other party is really having a good life, they will spread rumors to cause trouble5造謠生事 (zào yáo shēng shì): to cause trouble by spreading rumours; to start rumours and create trouble; stir up trouble by rumour-mongering; cause trouble by spreading false stories; create rumors and stir up trouble., if the other party is really having a bad life, they will talk even more energetically, to hold up the high and trample on the low6捧高踩低 (pěng gāo cǎi dī): T/N: May or may not be a typo for the idiom 扒高踩低 (pá gāo cǎi dī), crawl high, step low (idiom); unprincipled crawling, flattering one’s superiors and trampling on one’s juniors; toadying and bullying; flatter and cling to those above and bully and suppress those below., and bullying the weak while fearing the strong7欺軟怕硬 (qī ruǎn pà yìng): to bully the weak but fear the strong; bully the weak and give in to the tough..
“Shut up and stop talking, believe it or not, my knife will slit your throat if it’s not steady!” Shan Qiyun became angry from embarrassment when Shen Yuhan poked his mind.
Shen Yuhan also stopped provoking him, he could guarantee that his husband would show up in time, but he couldn’t guarantee that Shan Qiyun wouldn’t become angry from embarrassment and move against him, but he still cherished his life.
He dared to do all this, just to lure out the person behind the scenes for his husband, no one else can do it, only he can.
Shan Qiuyun leaned back on the chair and took a deep breath, he was angry because Shen Yuhan had hit the nail on the head, he was just jealous of Shan Qihuan, obviously, they were born at about the same time, obviously, they have the same father, but the treatment they received was vastly different, they could live in a beautiful big house, while he could only live in a building with his mother, Shan Qihuan had many people to take care of him from the moment he was born, whereas most of the time, he had to do everything by himself, cooking and cleaning were all done by his mother, it wasn’t until he grew a bit older, and after Gu Biqing became a nun that things started to get better for them.
He knew that only by being good could he get his father’s attention, he knew how to please his father. After moving into the main house, seeing Shan Qihuan always looking at them with disdain and not needing to please anyone, he was envious but also resentful of the other person, later, he often took advantage of the times when no one was around to bully the isolated Shan Qihuan, finding a sense of existence through this.
Shan Tianfeng was still good to him, he couldn’t be said to be doting on him, but at least he was better to him than to the other brothers, he always responded to his requests, however, as they grew up, everyone had their own strengths and weaknesses, he also wanted to inherit the Shan family’s business, which was his mother’s hope, but Shan Qiyuan had already entered the company, and he couldn’t see any hope at all, at this time, Shan Qihuan founded his own company, and it was doing very well8風風火火 (fēng fēng huǒ huǒ): rash; vigorous; bustling; energetic; hasty and rash; hustling and bustling; describe someone who is in a hurry or being reckless., it didn’t take long for him to raise funds and go public, which revealed his business talent, and attracted Shan Tianfeng’s attention, while he still hadn’t achieved anything.
Before long, Shen Yuhan appeared, initially, he had set his sights on himself, a prodigal son without learning or skills, but he dismissed9不屑一顧 (bù xiè yī gù): lit. to not be worth a glance; to disdain as beneath contempt (idiom); infra dig; displeasing to look at; sneering; to scorn; to sniff at; to dismiss (work or a suggestion); will not spare a glance (for); regard as beneath one’s notice; do not think worthy of cursory attention; contemptuously disregard. him, and when the Old Master let Shan Qihuan take over, he was secretly happy. Later, when he met Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan again, he regretted it, Shen Yuhan had become a person who knows the rules of etiquette, knew when to advance and when to retreat, and even won the Old Master’s favor, and Shan Qihuan’s status had risen sharply10水漲船高 (shuǐ zhǎng chuán gāo): lit. If water rises, a ship is elevated; the tide rises, the boat floats (idiom); fig. to change with the overall trend; to develop according to the situation; a thing grows as its foundation grows; when the river rises the boat goes up/floats higher—things improve with the improvement of the general situation..
He missed it again, whether it was luck or strength, he was inferior to Shan Qihuan!
“You’re right, I admit, I am indeed jealous of Shan Qihuan, I wish he would just disappear, but the more I hate him, the more people compare him to me, if I married you, he wouldn’t matter at all.” Especially after Shen Yuhan became more and more famous, no matter what occasion he attended, he would always hear people talking about him behind his back, even his friends asked him if he regretted not marrying Shen Yuhan.
Shen Yuhan lightly smiled and shook his head: “No, even if I marry you, we will eventually divorce, my husband and I complement each other11相輔相成 (xiāng fǔ xiāng chéng): to complement one another (idiom); to be mutually supporting., and our mutual affection is not based on gaining any benefits from each other. But you are different from us, when you interact with people for the first time, you evaluate their value, whether they are worth using, whether they are worth your effort, as far as I am concerned, I will not be of any help to you, and you will naturally give up on me very quickly, it seems that before the Old Master chose my husband, you had already made your decision.”
Shen Yuhan’s words successfully stopped Shan Qiyun from talking, everything he said was right, and not a single word was wrong, he has been like this since he was a child, he first evaluates whether the other party is beneficial to him, Shen Yuhan is not the one he missed, but the one he gave up first, he had already included Shen Yuhan in the worthless side.
After this conversation, Shan Qiyun clearly realized that there was a gap between him and Shen Yuhan, back to the original starting point, they were just two strangers who didn’t know each other.
Finally, Shan Qiyun took back his knife and opened the car door.
From the time Shen Yuhan was taken away, to the time the person behind the scene surfaced, to the time Shen Yuhan was found, four hours had passed.
The police immediately pulled Shen Yuhan out of the car, Shan Qihuan once again came forward and hugged Shen Yuhan, he was frightened.
This time, he was really angry.
Shan Qihuan directly told him with a cold face: “Shen Yuhan, I’m angry, it’s useless for you to coax me.”
Shen Yuhan gently stroked his back, his shirt was covered with cold sweat from fear, it was wet, and he felt uncomfortable, his original intention was not to make his husband worried and sad.
He hugged Shan Qihuan and said softly: “Husband, I’m sorry, I know you’ll be angry, I shouldn’t joke with my life.”
“You also know that you are joking with your life! If anything happens to you… How can you guarantee that the kidnappers will not tear the ticket12撕票 (sī piào): lit. to tear a ticket (upon entrance); (figurative) to kill a hostage held for ransom; (of a kidnapper) kill a kidnapped person; to kill a hostage (usually held for ransom); an internet buzzword, the kidnappers use hostages as threats, if they cannot meet their demands, they will kill the hostages., how do you know that they won’t fight with your employer and chop off your hands and feet! If they do anything else to hurt you, what should I do? Shen Yuhan, where is your brain?” Shan Qihuan was trembling a little when he spoke now, he lowered his head, and drops of hot tears fell on Shen Yuhan’s neck.
As the saying goes, a man will not shed tears easily, but that is only because he has not reached the point of being sad.
“It’s because I didn’t think things through well, I was too reckless, you can hit me or scold me if you want to.” Shen Yuhan began to reflect on himself, “I’m sorry, Husband, I dare to be so reckless because I believe you, just allow me to be reckless for once, okay?”
“If something really happens, ten million apologies are useless!” Shan Qihuan didn’t intend to forgive him for his recklessness.
No matter what Shen Yuhan said at this time, nothing could ease his husband’s discomfort, he now knew that Shan Qihuan was really frightened, he really cared about him.
He doesn’t regret the decision he made, this is the last time he’s going to test his husband’s sincerity.
–
Shan Qihuan took Shen Yuhan back to Jiang City overnight, and only after returning home did he feel more at ease.
The incident was resolved fairly quickly, and without alerting the media, but the entire Shan family is in a state of shock.
After hearing what happened, Shan Tianfeng was so angry that his blood pressure shot up, but fortunately, he was fine.
However, Shan Qihuan wouldn’t take things lying down13善罷甘休 (shàn bà gān xiū): (chiefly in the negative) to let go or give up easily; to leave the matter at that; to be prepared to let go; to be willing to take things lying down; let the matter drop; refers to settling disputes properly and not allowing the situation to continue., instead of resting after returning home, he dragged Shan Qibai, who had met a woman in the afternoon, to Shan Tianfeng.
Shen Yuhan was afraid that his husband would go crazy, regardless of anything, he followed him.
The Shan family members who learned of this incident returned to the Shan’s residence as if by coincide, even Gu Biqing was a little anxious, she had recently been observing a vegetarian diet and reciting Buddhist scriptures14吃齋念佛 (chī zhāi niàn fó): eat vegetarian food and recite Buddhist scriptures; practise abstinence from meat and say prayers; refers to worshiping Buddha sincerely; noble behavior of religious people in the old days, nowadays, it often means that monks do not eat meat dishes when eating, and they do not make any sound when chanting the Buddha’s name., unlike the usual quiet the Shan’s residence, today all the lights were bright, and everyone from the four houses was present in the main hall, including Shan Qixin, who also rushed back.
Except for Shan Qiyun, who is currently locked up in the police station and can’t come back, everyone is here.
Shan Tianfeng was still sitting on his main seat, and Shan Qihuan didn’t say a word with a heavy face, he waited until everyone who was supposed to come arrived, and then he had Shan Qibai carried into the house.
At this time, Shan Qibai had been beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.
The Second Madam screamed when she saw the person and shouted: “Shan Qihuan, why are you doing this to my son?” She lunged at Shan Qihuan, but the bodyguard pulled her away directly.
Shan Qihuan was not afraid at all, he said expressionlessly: “How could you not know what he did, are you trying to gain the initiative by striking first15先發製人 (xiān fā zhì rén): T/N: May or may not be a typo for the idiom 先發制人 (xiān fā zhì rén), to gain the initiative by striking first (idiom); to preempt; to take the initiative to subdue the enemy; to take preemptive measures; gain the initiative by striking the first blow; forestall the enemy.?” He looked at the crowd, “Now that everyone is here, I’ll also be straightforward, I encountered many car accidents before and after taking over the Shan Group, not only me but also Yuhan, it seems that there are people who want to put us to death. I’m wondering, who is so malicious that they are eager to see both of us dead? Today, they even directly sent people to kidnap Yuhan and threaten me.”
The Second Madam scolded like a shrew: “Then why do you think it was my son who did it, what does it have to do with us!”
“Shan Qiyun has already confessed, and Shan Qibai took the initiative to invite him to join the gang.” Shan Qihuan watched her performance coldly.
The Third Madam’s face turned pale, and her body swayed as if she was about to collapse16搖搖欲墜 (yáo yáo yù zhuì): lit. shaking or swaying as if about to collapse; tottering; on the verge of collapse; hang by a thread; be shaky and unsteady; tremble in the balance; describes something very dangerous, about to fall down soon, or unstable, about to collapse soon.: “How could Qiyun do such a stupid thing, Shan Qibai, how did you confuse him? How could you be so bad!”
The corners of Shan Qibai’s eyes were swollen, he glared at Shan Qihuan with one eye, he thought of something and sneered: “What evidence do you have to prove that I did it?”
“Evidence? I have plenty of it, not only do I have evidence that you hired a murderer to kill someone, but I also have other evidence, do you want to see it?” Shan Qihuan was able to pull everyone over today without hesitation, just because he wanted to spread everything out and talk about it, these buzzing flies are really too malicious.
He came here today not only with people, but also with physical evidence, the screen in the hall was powered up, and his people plugged the hard drive into the interface, and a picture immediately popped up on the screen.
A woman with a good figure also appeared in the picture, she was wearing a mask and a fisherman’s hat, her appearance could not be clearly seen for a while, but this figure can be found in their Shan family, even with the method of elimination, the person can be found.
“Look familiar?” Shan Qihuan asked them, “Dad, you should know who she is, right?”
The housekeeper handed Shan Tianfeng his reading glasses.
Shan Qihuan also played another video, this woman was holding a little girl and waiting for someone at the amusement park, not long after, Shan Qibai appeared in the video, he picked up the little girl very skillfully, and even kissed her on the face.
The hall suddenly became silent.
It was obvious who this woman was.
Shan Tianfeng turned his head to look at the Fourth Madam, who had never uttered a word, at this time, the Fourth Madam clenched her fists and stood back, trying to hide her figure, but everyone’s eyes were on her, and there was no way to escape, no place to hide.
This matter, Shen Yuhan didn’t know at all, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes and he calmed down, it turns out that the Old Master’s concubine and his concubine’s son got together, in Qi Kingdom, there are many such typical house fights, but this is the first time we have seen such a blatant one.
After all, Shan Tianfeng is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, after the actual video was released, his expression didn’t change, perhaps he already knew about the Fourth Madam and Shan Qibai.
“Qihuan, what else do you want to say?” Shan Tianfeng knew that Shan Qihuan would announce everything here, not to ask for his opinion, but to inform him, this kid’s style of action was vigorous and resolute17雷厲風行 (léi lì fēng xíng): lit. with the power of a thunderbolt and the speed of wind; pass like thunder and move like the wind (idiom); act with the power of a thunderbolt and the speed of lightning―carry out (orders, policies, etc) with drive and sweep; (when carrying out orders, policies, etc.) vigorously and speedily; vigorously and resolutely; swift and decisive; act vigorously and speedily; act immediately and resolutely; the original meaning is as fierce as thunder and as fast as the wind (violent). A metaphor for implementing policies and laws strictly and quickly; it also describes working with fierce force and acting quickly..
“Get Shan Qibai out of the Shan family, I’m going to send him to prison, he dared to threaten me with Yuhan’s life today, and he will dare to kill all of you tomorrow, this kind of vicious person is also a scourge if he stays in the society.” Shan Qihuan didn’t beat around the bush with him.
No one dared to say a word, the Second Madam collapsed on the ground, her daughter was not there, and there was no one to help her.
However, Shan Qihuan has not finished speaking, he does not have the authority to deal with the Second Madam and the Third Madam, but he can let Shan Tianfeng change his will: “The Second Madam and the Third Madam taught their children poorly, they dare to commit murder and arson18殺人放火 (shā rén fàng huǒ): to kill and burn (idiom); murder and arson; to commit violent crimes in a habitual manner, especially as gangsters or outlaws; slaughter people and set fire to houses; lawless acts of violence., what else would they not dare to do, as for the Fourth Madam, I have a copy of the DNA appraisal here, so Dad can make a decision after reading it, Dad, my advice to you is to change your will.”
Shan Qihuan didn’t care about anyone’s face today, and forcefully tore off the last semblance19遮羞布 (zhē xiū bù): loincloth (piece of clothing); (figurative) fig leaf; cover-up (for something shameful or contemptible); last semblance; refers to the cloth tied around the waist to cover the lower body. Metaphor used to cover up shame. of the Shan family, putting everything out in the open.
He made bold moves that shocked everyone.
Shan Tianfeng’s will has to be changed even if it is not changed this time, now, it’s not just one person who is drawing water out of a bamboo basket, but everyone and every house will not get any benefit, he wants to let these people have nothing20一無所有 (yī wú suǒ yǒu): not having anything at all (idiom); not having anything at all (idiom); utterly lacking; utterly lacking; without two sticks to rub together; not own a thing in the world; not have a thing to one’s name; be as bare as the palm of one’s hand; be stony broke; refers to money, but also to achievements and knowledge.!
Of course, it doesn’t matter if Shan Tianfeng doesn’t change his will, Shan Qihuan can also make them have nothing, he will not let them have a good time in his life!
He didn’t want to have the experience of Shen Yuhan almost dying in front of him again.
Now it’s not a matter of giving each house 50 lashes, but directly pushing them to a dead end.
Whatever they want most, they will never get!
Shan Tianfeng was silent for a long time, then waved his hand and said: “You can do whatever you want.” The Shan family is indeed a mess, the children he values have no moral character, no humanity, and even the person on his bed betrays him, this may be God’s final punishment for him.
As soon as the words fell out of his mouth, Shan Tianfeng finally passed out, which also heralded the collapse of the three houses’ backers.
Only then did they realize that the current Shan Qihuan was not something they could shake.
Everything is over.
The author has something to say:
